I bought some Gstar RAw, Unwashed Denim a little while ago, I got a 33, but usually wear a 34 (True size 35.5). The 33 are too tight and i can not get my hands into the pockets etc and cant get the top button undone, I was thinking of grabbing some APC PS in a 34.

My questions are;Should I stick it out with these Gstar and try and get them to stretch, or will I always have the problems with the pockets etc?

Or, if i go the PS Should I get a 34 or 33? I'd prefer to be able to use my pockets lol

Here's a question for those of you who live in the US. I have been working on making jeans lately and have been contacting factories who could potentially meet my demands. Any of you know of any jean manufactures (those who put the jeans together)?

Where can i find jeans like these? i know Dylan Rieder has his sig. denim but since analog is pretty much gone, they're impossible to come by. i would mostly like to find jeans that are black or grey. i like how the inside is almost the same colour as the outside.

I just purchased my first pair of raw denim. - the jeans are way too long and I was thinkingabout getting them hemmed. Is there anythingspecific that should be done before doing this?Do I need to wear them for awhile before doingthe hem?

What jeans did you get? Wear them for a little bit so the creases set in and take itll kinda shorten the denim a little bit. But I would hem with at least an extra 2" just incase they shrink some with a wash/soak

Raw denim inseams are supposed to be very long so you can create nice creases and stacks.

I'm looking to sell a pair of Levi's Fenom hi & lo 505DISCO Takashi x Murakami x KaiKai Kiki co. They are in great condition, but I do not know what would be a fair price. Any help would be great. Thanks!

No....you do not need to wear them or do anything before getting it hemmed...why u think that.....Just get it hemmed to your desire length, if you want to leave a little bit of stack you can as well

About to retire my petite standards soon. Im torn between buying another pair of Petite Standards or go get some 3sixteen jeans. What would you guys recommend. The thing that is making me think twice about the 3sixteen jeans is the price. Never owned a pair of 3sixteen how is the quality compared to APC.

never owned a pair of apcs but i just recently pulled the trigger on a pair of st100xs and im down with them. despite the heavy price i think they're worth it imo, i sized down one and they've stretched to the perfect fit ive been looking for a long time so to me it was worth the cash. the stitching and detail is on point, comes with a tanner goods leather patch and the selvedge is nice. the only thing about 3sixteens is that many of them are 37' inseam so you'll have to get them hemmed or just stack

Hey, I've had a pair of Unbranded selvedge for a couple months and made the mistake of sizing down. Are there home remedies of stretching out the waist and crotch? can I bring these into a tailor to have them add to the two areas? I've been told that this might not be possible through a seamstress but if it is, what is the process and can anyone suggest a place I can do it? I'm in Chicago, IL.

you can wet-stretch. just get the area you need to stretch damp, then wear them until they stretch.
